Mayflower Moving Video Library

Whether we’re doing the packing or you’d prefer to do it yourself, Mayflower is here to help. Our “Moving Tips” video series will demonstrate quality packing methods designed for your belongings. Each video provides tips and techniques specific to each unique room in your home.

You should attempt to find a special flat box or glass carton sized specifically for your mirror when purchasing boxes. With the proper box in-hand, you should prepare by lining outer edges with crushed paper.

When packing for a long distance move, we recommend using a dish pack, an exceptionally sturdy corrugated carton of double-wall construction made for china, glassware and other fragile items less than 18 inches in size.

It is very important that you or an appointed representative be present on packing and moving days to identify items needing special handling. It is also helpful so packers and van operators can ask questions along the way.
